      Regardless of the plot, this is a classic musical

      First of all, I want to explain that "My Fair Lady" is a song and dance love film released in 1964, so it is different from ordinary love films with a lot of song and dance scenes interspersed in the film. I personally like this kind of music and dance film very much, whether it is "The Sound of Music", "Chicago" or "High School Musical", "Beauty and the Beast", "La La Land", I like it very much, and I don't even understand most of them. I find all Indian musicals interesting. Not everyone...

      Adapted from Bernard Shaw's script Pygmalion, George Bernard Shaw can come up with such a mythical character as the title, which is really appropriate. When I went to Baidu Pygmalion, I felt what a literary giant is... Although I watched Breakfast at Tiffany's three times, I was severely face blind. Last week, when my English teacher showed us My Fair Lady, I just kept sighing, "Hey, it looks like Hepburn." Because Hepburn, who just appeared as a flower girl, has a very rustic appearance and...

      My Fair Lady from the Linguistic Perspective

      The film "My Fair Lady" is completely different from that of "Arrival". Advent tells that the future is science fiction. It integrates a lot of science and technology, and My Fair Lady brings us back to about a hundred years ago. In British society, the story will be told slowly in the real social background. With this film, I opened the door to sociolinguistics in linguistics. The first question we think about is what is society. Through the film, I think that society is a structure in...

      fair lady

      The beginning of reality, the end of fairy tales.

      At first I hated that flower girl. She's vulgar, low, like every nasty bottom person. But when she went to the professor to learn to speak, I changed my mind about her. She's just a joke to the professor, but she finds a way out of class and clings to it. She still behaved vulgarly, but I saw her self-esteem and self-love for herself.

      When she came back from the banquet, watching the professor and friends touting each other and...

      Let's talk about the relationship between the film's story and the phoneticians. The prototype of the protagonist Henry Higgins is the last century British phoneticist Henry Sweet and the more well-known phonetician Daniel Jones (phonetician). The name Jones is very familiar. He is the inventor of the DJ phonetic symbol and the first phonetic symbol system to record English. At the same time, he has recorded a lot of languages, including Cantonese. He can be regarded as the originator of...

      Watching a movie about the same age as my mother made me sigh for 3 points: compared to the current movie, I finally found the originator of the dog-blood Cinderella-style movie; the gorgeous costumes really flashed to me, it was very chicken; nearly 3 The hour-long movie told such a simple story, and it was still the best Oscar movie of the year. I was...

    Creative background

When the play was performed on Broadway, Julie Andrews Edwards played the role of Eliza. Warner Bros. Pictures decided to make "My Fair Lady" into a movie.

    "My Fair Lady", adapted from the drama of the same name by the great writer George Bernard Shaw, was the number one topic in Hollywood that year. The musical of the same name has already caused a huge sensation on Broadway, and the movie version not only has superstar Hepburn and legendary director George Cukor joined, but the production cost of more than ten million US dollars is also rare at the time. "My Fair Lady" is an auditory...

    Movie quotes

    • Professor Henry Higgins: Damn, damn, damn, DAMN!

      [astonished]

      Professor Henry Higgins: I've grown accustomed to her face! She almost makes the day begin! I've grown accustomed to the tune that she whistles night and noon. Her smiles, her frowns, her ups, her downs, are second nature to me now, like breathing out and breathing in... I was serenely independent and content before we met! Surely I could always be that way again... And yet... I've grown accustomed to her looks, accustomed to her voice, accustomed... to her... face.

    • Professor Henry Higgins: Marry Freddy! What an infantile idea, what a heartless, wicked, brainless thing to do. She'll regret it. She'll regret it! It's doomed before they even take the vow.

      [sings]

      Professor Henry Higgins: I can see her now, "Mrs. Freddy Einsford-Hill," in a wretched little flat above a store. I can see her now! Not a penny in the till, and a bill-collector beating at the door! She'll try to teach the things *I* taught her... and end up selling flowers instead! Begging for her bread and water! While her husband has his breakfast in bed! In a year or so, when she's prematurely gray, and the blossom in her cheek has turned to chalk, she'll come home, and lo! He'll have upped and run away with a social-climbing heiress from New York! Poor Eliza! How simply frightful! How humiliating! How *delightful*!

    • Professor Henry Higgins: How poignant it will be on that inevitable night, when she shows up on my door in tears and rags! Miserable and lonely, repentant and contrite! Shall I take her in, or hurl her to the wolves? Give her kindness, or the treatment she deserves? Will I take her back, or THROW THE BAGGAGE OUT? Well, I'm a most forgiving man. The sort who never could, ever would, take a position and staunchly never budge. A *most* forgiving man... But, I shall NEVER take her back! If she were crawling on her KNEES! Let her promise to atone, let her shiver, let her moan, I'll slam the door and let the hellcat FREEZE! Marry Freddy! HA!

      [turns to unlock the door, but stops in despair]

      Professor Henry Higgins: But I'm so used to hear her say, "Good morning" every day... Her joys, her woes, her highs, her lows, are second nature to me now, like breathing out and breathing in... I'm very grateful she's a woman, and so easy to forget! Rather like a habit one can always break... And yet... I've grown accustomed to the trace... of something in the air... Accustomed... to her... face.
